Fenton truck accidents are generally evaluated under the law of negligence in the state of Michigan. A person found to have negligently operated a motor vehicle in Fenton, Michigan may be required to pay any damages including personal injury caused by driver negligence, either to person or property. Generally, people who operate truck s in Fenton, Michigan must exercise "reasonable truck e under the circumstances." Failure to use reasonable care when operating a truck is the basis for damage claims in most Fenton truck accident lawsuits.

Michigan courts look to a number of factors in determining whether a driver was negligent. Some examples of factors evaluated to determine driver negligence in Fenton Michigan can include, but are not limited to, the following:

Driving too fast or too slow

Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol

Failing to signal while turning

Disregarding weather or traffic conditions

Disobeying traffic signs or signals

Failing to drive on the right side of the road

Texting while driving

Changing lanes too quickly

Truck driver error

Truck equipment failure

Weather conditions

Improper loading

A truck driver may also be liable for a Fenton truck accident if a Michigan traffic court determines that the auto accident was caused by intentional or reckless conduct.

A truck driver who is reckless is one who drives unsafely, with willful and wanton disregard for the probability that the driving may cause a truck accident and/or related injuries.

In another example, if a mechanic fails to properly repair a truck, and the failure causes a truck accident in Fenton Michigan, the person who improperly repaired the truck, and his repair shop, may be liable for injuries sustained. Other driver negligence factors such as poorly maintained roads and malfunctioning traffic control signals can contribute to the cause. Improper design, maintenance, construction, signage, lighting or other highway defect, as well as improper striping on the road's passing lanes, a sharp obstruction or problem with the roadway that obstructs drivers' vision, or poorly placed trees and utility poles can also cause serious truck accidents in Fenton Michigan. Finally, if an truck accident in Fenton Michigan is caused by an intoxicated driver, a bar or social host may be liable for damages sustained if they served an obviously intoxicated guest, who then drives and causes a truck accident in Fenton Michigan.

In Fenton truck accident cases, it is essential that measures be taken promptly to preserve evidence, investigate the truck accident in question, and to enable physicians or other expert witnesses to thoroughly evaluate any injuries sustained.
